Carrigeencan collect

CARRIGEEN King is the nap choice to land the first division of the Glenview and Rathbarry Studs Beginners Chase at Tipperary this evening.

Lightly-raced and a half-brother to the useful chaser Carrigeen Kalmia, this was always going to be the seven-year-old’s true vocation.

Mind you, he did fall at the first on his only excursion over fences so far, in the contest won by Notre Pere at Punchestown in early December.
